Thanks Guat, I had been passing through the town for just one night and had gone out to take photos but the light sucked and I was disappointed. Then I came across these children all dressed up for Guadalupe Day having a small fiesta and the light finally came good for a few minutes – just enough to get this shot as it just fell on this little girl beautifully.
An awesome picture. I love it! I love the chanclas, the Virgen de Guadalupe skirt, the basket, the girl, the expression, the background. One of the best ones I’ve seen.
Thanks Amar, no the girl was actually standing outside (just near a cafe, hence the chairs) and there was this lovely golden glow of late afternoon light that just caught her beautifully as she stood entranced by the Guadalupe Day goings-on.

Thanks Colline, I was fortunate because the late afternoon sun was illuminating her face so beautifully.
I love how the eye is drawn immediately to the girl’s face
